My point is that whether or not your omission was intentional, and I'll assume it wasn't since that is what you said, these applications must be filled out accurately. This is even more important in a post Colgan 3407 world due to the fact that most records indicate that the Captain wasn't completely accurate on his application there.

You were hired by Compass and you accepted employment by Compass. You will receive a W-2 and report the income to the IRS. The record is there and it should be reflected on future job applications.

Fill out these applications as if they were going to be reviewed in court. Take your time and fill them out as carefully and accurately as possible.
